Tempura Endo Okazakitei

Pricey but worth every penny. Our favorite meal in Kyoto. Our server was incredible as well as the food! Grapefruit sorbet is something I’m still dreaming about

I felt this place was overpriced and not worth it. The food was okay, nothing amazing. I'm not sure I experienced anything different than a regular restaurant. Maybe if it was half the price, I would feel like it was worth it but not at the current price

Very excellent food and service. We were able to watch the chef prepare our food and sometimes he brought it directly to us. Tempura excellence

Firstly I must mention to you that my friends and I, we like trying new cuisines flavors. We go out in very good restaurants every time we travel. We usually don’t care about how much we spend, we are looking for nice experiences and delicious food. Definitely this is not a place if you are looking for the same thing. The restaurant was a hugely disappointed. We had to order one of the three set menus between and yens each. Let me putt-it this way: we ordered tempura, but we’ve got very oily overcooked vegetable schnitzels. It was probably the worst meal of our holiday. It’s a no go place if you are looking for fine restaurants. The quality of the tempura does not even rise to the standard of a tempura in a regular street food market

We went out for dinner at this restaurant where they offered set menus based on price. The cheapest set menu was ¥10,000 and the most expensive was ¥20,000. The tempura was delicious, made with high-quality ingredients and skilled techniques. The chef even explained the best pairings for each tempura, whether it was salt, macha salt, or sauce. The service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff. We arrived early so we had plenty of space to ourselves. Our bill came to around ¥31,000 for two people, including a small bottle of wine. If we had known beforehand that it was a pricey restaurant, we would have dressed up a bit more.
